PISCATAWAY, NJ – Get ready for a night full of tricks and treats this Friday, Oct. 30 when Piscataway High School’s Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) club members transform the Anthony Building into a ‘Haunted High School.'

This SPOOKtacular event is for families with children in Grades Pre-K to 5 and will take place between 5 p.m. – 7 p.m. Wear your costume if you dare!

Haunted High School is Piscataway FBLA's first Service Project of the year. Each year on Halloween, FBLA teams up with other clubs to turn the High School into a ‘Haunted High School’ and to host a safe, fun Halloween event for local children. Each club involved in Haunted High School competes to create the most popular, scariest room in the High School. With help from club members, Piscataway FBLA has won this competition multiple times.

The minimum donation to attend is $2 per child and all proceeds from Haunted High School go to the March of Dimes. The mission of the March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality.

In the 2014-2015 year, the Piscataway FBLA raised over $650 in profit for March of Dimes, $200 more than the previous year.
